Penguin Modern Classics - A Censored Sampling - Page 5

I intended to list out every member of this collection that's been released up until today, but then I found out that there's apparently at least 1258 of these suckers, so. Maybe some other time. Anyway, here's my favorite imprint that specializes in bleached out skeletons of covers. Sourcing this from a GR list I made back when there was a point to doing so on that site.
P.S. Lol, censoring the Nin but neither the Graves nor the Updike. List Challenges, how about you stop having your site moderated by twelve-year-old boys.
